didnt u know...BC can sell Igloo's to eskimos! LOL for real though.. i think BC will be the MSLE pres. after this season is finished..all signs point to it in my opinion & the fact he hasnt been shown the door like Burke did only solidifies my belief.. Ed Stefanski will most likely take over..

I've ALWAYS been a BryCo supporter .. but now I'm thinking that it might just be best for the franchise to have someone else drive the car. While I'm still of the opinion that he's made more good moves than bad for this team over the last several years, his few bad moves are starting to out weigh the many good things he's done. When that balance starts to lean in the wrong direction, change is certainly required. But mid-season is NOT the time to do it.

I wanted to reply that changing mid season would help a new gm prepare for the draft, but, yeah ...

I believe his time will be up at the end of the season. Rogers and Bell are showing signs that they are committed to winning and making the necessary changes in order facilitate success. Changes have been made to both the Jays and Leafs so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Raptors are next on their list.

Everyone screamed and whined for a rebuild. Guess what! thats what we are still doing! did you expect to be in the playoffs? it would be nice but this team still needs to play and come together. We have key pieces to keep and key pieces to move. And we have been winning without our primary scorer.. in pasta boy.

What blows me away is that Brian Burke gets axed before the puck drops and he's been here a lot shorter while Colangelo just floats on by like a butterfly.

The difference is we're trying to rebuild. Burke was trading away draft picks left and right to try and win right away.

I really don't get why people are calling for BC's head. It was clear from the start of the season we're rebuilding and that's what we're doing. It especially doesn't make sense to make this thread right now when we've been playing really well even if we blew big leads. This whole season has been a growing experience since we are struggling to close out games (which isn't because of lack of talent).

It was clear from the on court play. Off the court the message from the Raps (including BC) was much different.

Well the president of MLSE (current owners) said they want to see progress so I don't think he'll be gone as long as we keep playing well and improve over last season.

Well progress can be very subjective and considering they are going on 5 years out of the playoffs with no draft pick this year and minimal off-season flexibility (at this point in time) I would disagree they are a) playing well and b) improving.

I think they are not going to change things in mid season. There is really no point. Or at least before the trade deadline. I also think that MLSE told BC to say out of coaching, and do his job. And now they are watching if he can do that. I also think that no trades might be in the cards, especially if Andrea doesn't come back before the trade deadline.

He may be gone before the Feb. 21st deadline to manoeuvre the necessary trades, specifically AB. I don't think BC has the cojones to pull it off himself. Stefanski takes over for the time being. This is just a guess on my part.
